9 Common Symptoms of Anorexia

Exercise and take walk a lot

In anorexia, extreme dieting is often accompanied by grueling exercise. Thus, patients punish themselves for eating and burn the calories that have entered the body. According to a study [11] conducted by Italian doctors, 45% of patients with eating disorders resorted to heavy physical activity. This phenomenon is more common in women than men, according to scientists [11] from La Trobe University in Australia. With anorexia, thoughts about training become obsessive: when, for some reason, patients miss classes, they feel a strong sense of guilt. If a friend began to walk a lot and torture herself with prolonged physical exertion, most likely she needs help, they warn psychiatrists.
